1865-66 Remington¹ Rolling Block Rifles

The Remington-Rider¹ rolling block action was the result of a developmental process which began with the 1863 patent of a rotating block metallic cartridge-firing breech loading rifle by Leonard Geiger, a Remington¹ Employee. After undergoing some initial modifications 20,000 Remington¹ 'Split Breech' carbines were manufactured for the union army in 1864 and 1865. The 1865-66 'Rolling Block' action was a further refinement of the Split Breech design and though rifles of this type saw use by many armies until the widespread adoption of bolt action repeating rifles, these rifles are most famous for their use during the bison hunts and throughout the old West.

Pedersoli Rolling Block Rifles

Pedersoli combine the best in tradition and technology in creating their rolling block rifles, all of which are compatible with tunnel front sights and Creedmoor rear sights. Each colour case-hardened receiver is machined from a solid steel with deluxe versions featuring richly engraved satin finish receivers.
